White Red Walkers

[mustache82]

4 Stoneforge Mystic
4 Squadron Hawk
4 Sphere of the Suns
1 Sword of Feast and Famine
1 Sword of War and Peace
4 Volt Charge
4 Slagstorm
4 Koth of the Hammer
4 Day of Judgment
3 Gideon Jura
3 Chandra Nalaar
4 Arid Mesa
4 Terramorphic Expanse
2 Evolving Wilds
7 Mountain
7 Plains

4 Lightning Bolt
4 Divine Offering
1 Shatter ?
4 Tumble Magnet
1 Batterskull
1 Sword of Body and Mind

I'm trying to create a powerful planeswalker deck post New Phyrexia.
I'd utilize plenty of removal and sweepers to keep the board clean for walkers in the form of Slagstorm and Day of Judgment.
Volt Charge has great synergy with Koth and Chandra helping them go ultimate the turn after they come into play.
The Stoneforge/Hawk combo keeps the pressure on while I stick walkers.

I love the idea of decks like this post NPH since for some reason I'm more hyped about proliferate coming on GOOD cards like Volt Charge and Tezz's Gambit than I am most other things. Although I would say that 8 sweepers seems like too much, and would suggest moving the 4 Tumble Magnets to the mainboard and the swords package is underhelming to say the least without Mystics in the deck to fetch

do you think the spheres are really necessary? i know its a good card and all but doesnt seem like youd have too many issues having the wrong amount of any color. that 4 spot could be put to better use id imagine.

I played a deck very similar prior to NP at a local tourney which would allow the winner to get an invite to the most recent Texas event. I placed 3rd (didnt go obviously), but what I learned was being able to ramp in the Big RW to pull your walkers out quicker is typically very worth it. A turn 3 Koth is no joke.
I also ran a few copies of Inferno Titan which became quite the finish after being able to sweep again... and again... haha loved it.

There are 4 main deck Mystics. First card on the list
I could see Tumble Magnet going main deck for the Slagstorm and siding in Slagstorm against aggro.
Perhaps both in against Caw-Blade.

I have definitely thought about playing Titan. I'm having trouble dropping cards.
I want to keep the Spheres definitely to get out the walkers early.
I think people have really underrated the power of Chandra. Especially in a sweeper type deck like this.
With no one around to take her out she ultimates fast. She's a 5 mana 6 point Fireball to Titans if need be.
She can take out plenty of small creatures if protected (2 bladed Hawks in a row - without Sword of War and Peace). Speaking of which I do agree the Magnets should be main decked to counteract that sword.
I will also have the artifact removal suite. Koth and Gideon's strengths are already known and I think that the full sweeper package should stay in place to protect the walkers.
There really aren't that many effective ways of removing walkers outside of red burn and black.

@Mattboy - were you playing any proliferate cards like Volt Charge or Tezzeret's Gambit?

[Mattyboy]

I wasn't at the time since I was playing the build pre-New Phyrexia. If I were running it now however, Volt Charge seems like a smart option. It's an extra bolt, and kicking Koth up more quickly into his ultimate can add to further multi-situational sweeping effects.
I understand the continued proliferate in Tezzerets gambit, but like you said and I agree, there is only so much room in a deck...
What do you think of Spellskite? It could really help to provide the additional cover for the walkers after successful sweeping has played out, though Leyline of Sanctity may still be the better option since sweeping would clear him.
Walker targeting spells outside of red and black:
Beast Within, Condemn (if Gideon becomes a 6/6), Into the Roil.
PS Tumble mangent rocks. I had 2 main deck and 2 in SB.
